Does anyone know how I can do this I have the SEV form from the Land Registry but need to send a formal without prejudice notice of severance to my ex and an accompanying letter to land registry I need to get a draft from somewhere to get the wording right my local solicitor (highway robber) wants £250.00
With a post such as yours I would be tempted to use the solicitor. For £250 they will not only use the right legal jagon and get the content right they will also use the appropriate punctuation.
All you have to do is send a notice to your co-owner by registered or recorded delivery. There is no particular form of wording needed as long as the meaning is clear. There is a suggested form of words here. http://www.questbrook.co.uk/joint.htm
Then I would make a oath in front of a solicitor swearing service and exhibiting the original to the oath - this should cost you £7 plus exhibits. Then complete RX1 and send to the Land Reg.
thanks for the answers.. The RX1 form was made obselete in Nov 2008 so I just needed the SEV form and got the data about the notice of severance from the link above I will take everything I have to the Land Registry in person
my next trick will be to force the sale of the property.. Anyone got any ideas as to how much this will cost and can I get legal aid.
Legal aid depends on how much you earn. I'm not sure but I was told recently that if you earn under 16k you can get legal aid. They can take the costs from the equity though.
